Hi

I need to check the ball in a specific point.

The checkpoint must be invisible, traversable and with Hit event.

 

Is it possible to have it?

 

Thanks.

You can put an invisible trigger, gates and spinners can also be invisible.

yes it is been my choise the trigger, but I had some problem at the begins, but now I have a question.

The event happens also if the ball is over the trigger and don't touch it.

 

Bug or it is correct?

It is correct. The trigger has a hit height. Can be set in the properties.

The shape and size of the trigger contact area are important, if too small it could create no hit events or on the contrary a lot of hit events at the same time.
